Los Angeles Clippers basketball player Lamar Odom has reportedly turned to drugs during some off-court troubles.

The 33-year-old, who is married to reality star Khloe Kardashian, is believed to have been booted out of the home that he shares with his wife in a bid to deal with his issues.

It is understood that despite separating from the sportsman, Kardashian met with Odom at an undisclosed location trying to convince him to get clean, according to TMZ.

Reports have claimed that Odom rejected an intervention from his family last week.
